We explore several aspects of the categorical symmetry-resolved entanglement entropy (SREE) in two-dimensional Rational Conformal Field Theories (RCFTs) and express it directly in terms of the modular data of the theory. Motivated by…

We study a quantum mechanical system whose spectrum coincides with that of bilinear operators of the Sachdev-Ye-Kitaev model. The standard positivity-based quantum mechanical bootstrap is degenerate with respect to the boundary data: it…

The non-classicality of single quantum systems can be formalised using the notion of contextuality. But can contextuality be convincingly demonstrated in an experiment, without reference to the quantum formalism? The operational approach to…

A $(k; r, s; n, q)$-set (short: $(r,s)$-set) of $\mathrm{PG}(n, q)$ is a set of points $X$ with $|X| = k$ such that no $s$-space contains more than $r$ points of $X$. We investigate the asymptotic size of $(r, s)$-sets for $n$ fixed and $q…

The quantum Cram\'er-Rao (QCR) bound sets the ultimate local precision limit for unbiased multiparameter estimation. Yet, unlike in the single-parameter case, its saturability is not generally guaranteed and is often assessed through…

We introduce a method for effectively identifying bound states in the continuum (BICs) - notably without computing the imaginary part of the eigenvalues - thereby simplifying the modeling and potentially reducing computation time. In real,…

We consider unambiguous identification of coherent states of electromagnetic field. In particular, we study possible generalizations of an optical setup proposed in M. Sedl\'{a}k {\it et al.}, Phys. Rev. A {\bf 76}, 022326 (2007). We show…

We generalize Bonahon-Wong's $\mathrm{SL}_2(\mathbb{C})$-quantum trace map to the setting of $\mathrm{SL}_3(\mathbb{C})$. More precisely, given a non-zero complex parameter $q=e^{2 \pi i \hbar}$, we associate to each isotopy class of framed…

From the consideration of measuring bipartite mixed states by separable pure states, we introduce algebraic sets in complex projective spaces for bipartite mixed states as the degenerating locus of the measurement. These algebraic sets are…

We show that the strongly symmetric spectral convex compact sets are precisely the normalized state spaces of finite-dimensional simple Euclidean Jordan algebras and the simplices. Spectrality is the property that every state has a convex…

We analyze a basis-independent definition of quantum coherence. The maximally mixed state is used as the reference state, which allows for a way of defining coherence that is invariant under arbitrary unitary transformations. The…

We propose a universal framework for classifying quantum states based on their scale-resolved correlation structure. Using the recently introduced information lattice, which provides an operational definition of the total amount of…

Kochen-Specker (KS) sets are fundamental in physics. Every time nature produces bipartite correlations attaining the nonsignaling limit, or two parties always win a nonlocal game impossible to always win classically, is because the parties…

Understanding the complexity of quantum states and circuits is a central challenge in quantum information science, with broad implications in many-body physics, high-energy physics and quantum learning theory. A common way to model the…

Contextuality is a distinctive feature of quantum theory and a fundamental resource for quantum computation. However, existing examples of contextuality in high-dimensional systems lack the necessary robustness required in experiments. Here…

The present paper is the companion of [1] in which we proposed a scheme that tries to derive the Quantum Field Theory (QFT) on Curved Spacetimes (CST) limit from background independent Quantum General Relativity (QGR). The constructions of…
